Some women may not grow enough eggs or may over respond to the drug stimulation and will need to stop treatment so that a new cycle can be started on a different dose of stimulatory drugs.
**Results are reported per embryo transfer, as for a small number of patients embryos may not be available/ suitable for transfer
